Lol thanks for the comment (to Hildanknight). :D Cheers -- Imoeng 02:22, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Overthrow of Sukarno

I dont see why a GA needs images where there is a limited range available - all the ones that I know of of the the peak of this era (ie during the killings in central java) are the cruddiest black and white images I have ever seen! Anyway, I do hope you guys get it up to GA - Daniel and I in the end hoped others would pick it up - best of luck! SatuSuro 08:55, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Have done so already. Daniel was the guy who did most of the article - if you look in the history and talk - he and I had a bit of a tiff about the civil war title - but I insisted on not doing the change. Impressed by your recent work in the big arts that needed all that work - well done! SatuSuro 09:05, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
So do you know the annual suharto era national tv movie G30SPKI off by heart as well? SatuSuro 09:07, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

re: Album Cover Removals

Could you please be more specific about which particular criteria you judge the use of album covers to be against WP:FUC??

  • It's been discussed in more detail in the past, but the general consensus has been that it violates criterion #8, "the image must contribute significantly to the article". It's fine to have an image of the album cover in the album's own article, or even in a section of the band article that discusses the album, because then it's being used to illustrate text that specifically discusses the image's content. Just putting the album cover in an otherwise list-formatted discography, though, doesn't add in any significant way to the article, so the use of the image is considered decorative. --keepsleeping slack off! 15:45, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Collaboration

Hi how are you? So do you think we should extend the collab (again)? Personally, I think we should. Cheers -- Imoeng 09:38, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh alright then. How long do you think we should extend it? I have no idea. Also I will find out about bot to "spam" the project members. Cheers -- Imoeng 13:39, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I see you've been doing a lot of work on it while I was away... I'm trying to add a little credibility to our work now :) I think we're gonna be ready for a peer review very soon... --Kristbg 03:59, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Toraja word

Just for a comparison. Is Malay a plural or a singular? I think Toraja is a singular, because it is an ethnic name. Same case for Batak, Dani, Asmat, etc. — Indon (reply) — 04:42, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

HBIX

I think there could be many more links put in or fixed up - but I'm mainly working all my old arts on Tasmania for the moment. Also details about all the early HB'S should be in somehwere. SatuSuro 09:55, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

BTW what are you like on Suharto's early career? the latest couple of edits at his art look suss to me... SatuSuro 11:43, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Re (Suharto) in Yk (ie Yogya) we had rumours something like that but diff place. HBIX is Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono the ninth as is PBX Sri Susuhunan Paku Buwono the tenth - I once gave a seminar without having the honorifics for those guys ! death would have been easier than extreme malu SatuSuro 12:24, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Pffff. That's nothing - on my first Lebaran i wished Salatiga's most promiment imam a "happy christmas" as a guest in his own home on Idul Fitri! Accidently of course - i got my Hari Natal and Hari Raya's mixed up! He took it well. --Merbabu 12:31, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This is beginning to feel like the geordies in the monty python thing about living in the middle of the road - bank daging rather than bank dagang in a bupati's house in eastern indonesia - but not as good as yours! good one! SatuSuro 12:36, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the compliments. Yeah I know I should be sourcing it and I'll try to cite references and sources to the PPP article (I've also worked on the Golkar article and also all of the Orde Baru Vice Presidents apart from Habibie if you're interested in checking). I just have a good memory of the facts when it comes to things that I'm enthusiastic about (Indo politics esp. Orde Baru).

If you want to help with the sources by all means go for it. Anything after Orde Baru, you could easily find on the Internet. If you want to source info on the 2004 elections, you can go to tempointeraktif.com, they've got an archive of articles there. Just look around the May-August 2004 articles and you should be able to source my info on the Presidential elections.

I would help locate sources but I've got the HSC coming up and I'm only working on the articles when I'm taking a break from studies. Jakman 00:47, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, I'm Indonesian. Born in Jakarta in 1988, moved to Sydney in 1999 and now doing my HSC. I didn't really get interested in Indonesian politics until 2004 when the Presidential Elections were on. I went on holiday that year(last two weeks of June 2004 and first two weeks of July 2004), got caught up with all the election enthusiasm, started searching information on the Presidential/Vice Presidential candidates for fun, and that's how I got interested into Indo politics.Jakman 01:21, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Anti-C category

Picadilly has just started this [Category:Indonesian anti-communists] with Suharto as first art in it - what do you think? SatuSuro 01:13, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hope you didnt mind my butting in on the persistent one! SatuSuro 01:29, 18 October 2006 (UTC) Blah! that stuff always takes up so much time! SatuSuro 01:40, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Thanks for adding the footnotes to Languages of East Timor. :-) FilipeS 19:23, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Citations for Bali

Hello. I have tried to find citations for Bali, for now, only using Google, but I cannot find a "scholar" website, most of them are travel sites. Do you think we should use that for now? Cheers -- Imoeng 10:32, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OH lol, I didn't know that. I've been reverting vandalisms since this morning because I have nothing to do (no scholar sources). Okay thanks very much -- Imoeng 05:18, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rumah Gadang

They still exist in Negeri Sembilan where there's a community of Minangkabaus. Besides, the rumah gadang has been an inspiration to the design of other buildings such as Muzium Negara, Malaysia's national museum.Wai Hong 08:26, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Human rights in Indonesia

I apologize for my oversight. I do place merge information in the edit summary when I feel the differential and "what links here" do not make the nature of the merge clear. In this case, I clearly misestimated. I will not make that mistake again. Jlittlet 16:13, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikiproject Indonesia Newsletter

WikiProject Indonesia has grown incredibly! Two months ago, when the project was created, there were only two members, but now, we have got over 20 members, and hopefully it will keep increasing. Because of this large number, now WikiProject Indonesia has it's own newsletter, which will be delivered every week on Monday morning, around 22:00 (UTC). If you have any idea and suggestions, please do not hesitate to contribute to the next newsletters. We also need to find a better banner for the newsletter, so just post it on project's talk page. With your help, we can reach the even the impossible goal!
"Bersatu kita teguh, bercerai kita runtuh"
What's new?
Several ways to increase the interactions between editors have been proposed. For now, the best solution would be the IRC Channel just for WikiProject Indonesia. Please go to #wikipedia-id if you have had experiences with IRC Channels. Or read the instructions at Wikipedia:IRC.

Three new barnstar design have been proposed! If you find a great editor with excellent contributions to Indonesia-related articles, give him/her a barnstar, or maybe two or three! See the barnstars at Wikiproject Indonesia Barnstars.

Articles improvements
The previous two weeks were maybe the best and tiring week for some of us. On the good side, we have got a new Good Article, which is Toraja. Congratulations for all editors who have involved in the expansion. Yet we have failed to get two Good Article status, which are Tourism in Indonesia and Indonesia. However with the spirit of 1945 we will always accomplish many things!

Starting this week (October 17), the collaboration durations have been extended, so now we can collaborate to improve a particular article for two weeks straight. Please leave any recommendations or suggestions on the collaboration talk page.

Many thanks to MartinBotII, a state-of-the-art Martinp23's bot for delivering the newsletter
